Patient's question:
I previously had a tumor grow in my ovary. I originally thought that after surgical treatment, everything would be fine, but unexpectedly, new problems have arisen again. Now my fallopian tubes have started to thicken and harden. I don't know how it happened, whether it's due to my own improper care or a post-surgical complication. So, I would like to ask everyone, what causes the fallopian tubes to thicken and harden?Doctor's answer:
The fallopian tubes becoming thicker and harder indicate chronic tubal inflammation, which can affect normal conception and pregnancy. Even if pregnancy occurs, it may easily lead to a recurrence of ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended to actively treat the inflammation with medication and consider a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for symptomatic treatment. Additionally, you can complement with traditional Chinese therapy, infrared irradiation, cold compresses, and mugwort moxibustion, all of which can help stabilize the condition. Regular follow-up examinations are necessary. The recurrence of fallopian tube issues poses a serious threat to women's health, so it is essential to maintain clean external genital hygiene and avoid sexual activity in daily life.
